Sand & Sound
The music festival on the summer solstice, 13 km of concerts on the beach
About Sand & Sound
Thirteen kilometers of music by the sea
Sand & Sound is the music festival that in Cavallino-Treporti, in the province of Venice, celebrates the summer solstice by transforming the entire coastline into a widespread stage. Along the 13 kilometers of beach, dozens of musical stations are set up where bands and groups play simultaneously.
All genres, from the sea
The event offers an experience where everyone can find the music they prefer: from rock to jazz, from pop to electronic music, and Latin music. Kiosks, bars, and restaurants on the beach turn into stages, hosting performances and livening up the coastline from sunset into the evening.
Local bands
Created to promote the local music scene, Sand & Sound primarily gives space to bands from Cavallino-Treporti and the surrounding areas, alongside musicians from neighboring regions. The event is part of the broader Fête de la Musique (Music Day) which marks the summer solstice across Europe.
The beginning of summer
Promoted by the Municipality of Cavallino-Treporti, Sand & Sound has become the symbol of the start of summer on the coast, attracting tourists and residents for an evening of widespread music with a sea view.
